Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 2 servings

  • ½ cup hulled millet

  • 2 tablespoons slivered almonds

  • 2 tablespoons pumpkin seeds

  • 2 tablespoons shredded unsweetened coconut

  • 1 tablespoon flax seeds

  • 2 cups unsweetened almond milk, divided

  • 3 Medjool dates, pitted and diced

  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg

Directions

  1. Pulse millet in a blender or food processor until it resembles coarse ground coffee. Set aside.

  2. Heat a nonstick saucepan over medium-high heat. Add almonds and toast until golden brown, stirring occasionally, about 2 minutes. Add pepitas and continue to stir and toast until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Stir in coconut and flax seeds and toast until golden, about 5 minutes more. Pour mixture into a bowl and set aside.

  3. Pour ground millet into the same pan. Toast until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Pour in 1 1/2 cups almond milk, stirring to ensure there are no lumps. Bring to a boil; add dates. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally.

  4. Add 2 tablespoons of the toasted seed mixture to the porridge. Sprinkle in cinnamon and nutmeg. Stir well. Continue simmering until thickened, 6 to 10 minutes.

  5. Pour porridge into two bowls. Divide remaining seed mixture and 1/2 cup almond milk between bowls and serve.

Pineapple Pulled Pork Al Pastor

Pineapple Pulled Pork Al Pastor

There's nothing like a juicy pork al pastor sandwich, especially because it is inspired by a famous taco. Maybe it's the brine, or that I'm just easily satisfied, but it's been my experience that if you simply season aggressively and cook the meat over smoky coals up to a certain temp, you'll be rewarded with tender, moist, and very flavorful meat. Slather it with the grilled pineapple salsa for the full "al pastor" experience.

This pineapple curry is a quick and easy Thai curry dish that's sweet and spicy. I became enamored with this dish at a local restaurant and then worked to duplicate it at home. I think I've got the taste and presentation pegged. I'm guesstimating the amounts since I don't measure much when I cook. Feel free to adjust to taste.
